My sweet Grandpa Stones passed away yesterday. As I reflected on him and his life as I knew it I couldn't help but think about my very fond memories of him as a child. Whenever we went to visit it was always a very long road trip, but we would always look forward to the moment we pulled up to his Texaco gas station! He would always have treats in hand waiting to give us some of his yummy treats! He was a very hard working man which was clearly passed down to my mother who in turn taught us kids. He was always so pleasant to be around because his eyes always sparkled with happiness. Love you Grandpa, I can feel you smiling down on all of us!
1980, 31 years ago when my sister and I were born. (I'm on the left, Cami's on the right in case you were wondering)
2002, after my Tyler was born. Grandpa always wore this kind of work jumper. I can't remember him wearing anything different!
2006, Aunt Tamra, Grandma Stones and Grandpa Stones. Andy and I visited them on our 5 year anniversary trip :)
LOVE YOU Grandpa!!
